Is there such a thing as a flare that lasts only a few hours? I always understood flares in terms of weeks or months. My husband, who has had Crohn's for 5+ years, routinely gets periods of high intensity pain that cause vomitting and inability to funtion to the point where he goes to the ER for pain management. All his labs and xrays always come back normal and once they give him pain meds and anti nausea drugs, he's fine, so they have started telling him it must just be a bad flare. I am skeptical based on the short duration. Does anyone have insight or experience? Nights in the ER are getting old (and expensive!).
Thank you! Always grateful.
